BBQ Jackfruit Tacos and Strawberries and Cream Bars

This week’s episode talks all about jackfruit and pea protein powder. We’ll talk a bit about the nutritional benefits and two recipes.

Pea Protein Powder: a plant-based high protein source that is rich in iron. It is often used in smoothies, oatmeal, and baked goods.


Jackfruit: a fruit native to South India, high in antioxidants (carotenoids) and is used as a vegetarian, meat alternative. It is often used as a pulled pork alternative, in pizza, smoothies, stirfry, and curries.
